Madziva Pastor Jailed for Raping a Mental Health Patient
A 71-year-old Madziwa-based preacher who raped a mental health patient has been jailed by the Bindura Regional Magistrate.
Pastor Chilinde Chilinde was hit with a 15-year jail term. According to Prosecutor, Edward Katsvairo, sometime in August last year, the pastor visited the complainant’s homestead and found her alone.
He proposed love to the 22-year-old victim and dragged her to a kitchen hut where he raped her. After the rape, Chilinde gave her US$1 to buy her silence.
The matter came to light after the complainant’s grandmother discovered some bad odour.
She revealed the rape to her and a police report was filed.
